@A5mod3us Well, there is going to be a upgraded prototype coming out soon then the fighter bomber version. I had experimented with this idea waaaaayyyy back in alpha days but didnt get to post the plane.
On my phone, I had a lot of trouble controlling her, since she requires a lot of precise yaw control. However, when I downloaded it and flew on PC with my XBOX controller, I had little trouble keeping her flying straight. Overall, it's a very impressive concept. I wouldn't mind seeing a bomber sized version.
@SpiritusRaptor It took a few test flights and rethinking of how to have a rudder. It still itsnt that good since it is so unstable. But its a good start, thats why this is the test model. The finished plane will likely be a attacker, shes too slow for a fighter on interceptor and doesnt turn well.
Good! With no 'tail' I'm sure it took ages to get it fly as it does... I like her!
@SpiritusRaptor I um...wanted to see what you think?
@A5mod3us what do you think?
@Delphinus wanted to know what you think.
